I voted in favour of adoption of the report by Mr Gierek on the Research Fund for Coal and Steel
Pursuant to the Council's guidelines, after operating for five years the Research Fund for Coal and Steel was reviewed this year. The review focused on efficient use of energy materials and environmental protection. It should be emphasised that one of the Fund's great advantages is that it can be used as a source of supplementary finance for research not covered by the Seventh Framework Programme. In addition, pursuant also to the European Commission's stance, the Fund should continue to operate, because steel is still one of the principal raw materials for the machinery and construction industries, and these sectors require constant investment in research.
The Fund will also facilitate better use of coal on the energy market, which will make a significant contribution to the European Union's energy security. It should, however, be remembered that extraction of this raw material requires ongoing exploratory surveys. Another important issue is the introduction of the principle of gender equality into the research teams. This will make a positive contribution to increasing the involvement of women in the area."@en1
